Digicel Fiji 7s reps Niumaia Cakacaka and Seremaia Burotu will be eligible for selection for the New Zealand 7s tournament in Wellington, February next year.

Both players have been ruled out for six weeks after they were injured during the Dubai 7s tournament early this month and had to miss the George 7s tournament in South Africa.

Coach Iliesa Tanivula said, Cakacaka who had a broken rib and Burotu who fractured his arm, have been going through medical Tests and have also been working with the physio to recover in time for the second leg of the IRB World 7s Series.

Tanivula said he will not rush in making the decision on the two, and both of them will get a chance to prove their selection in the Digicel Suva International 7s tournament next month.
